How would that work out in number of delegates? There would be 50 on that basis of which the U. S. would send 27, the United Kingdom 11, Canada and Australia 3 each, Hire, Union of South Africa and New Zealand, 2 each. 13 .Would the British, Irish and Canadians accept that? Didn’t Delaware and Connecticut accept smaller representation in our own Federal Union than New York or Pennsylvania? Like the United States, the proposed new Federal Union is planned as a union of free individualsrather than ‘of national or state units. 14. How would such a Union differ in effect from an Alliance or League? An alliance. or league is designed to keep each state absolutely sovereign, especially in matters of its relations. with other states. Thus, under our present agreement with Canada, she can go to ‘war without the consent of the United States, but by the terms of the alliance, we ‘are bound to come to her assistance, if she gets into trouble. 15. Couldn't we be as readily involved by Canada or one of the other democracies under the proposed Federal Union? No more than the Pennsylvania government can involve the rest of the American Union, or even its own people, in war without the united action of all the American states. In the proposed Federal Union of democracies no member nation or state could act separately on matters of war and other internationa relations, Neither the British nor the United States government could involve any part of the Union in war. 16. Then the British Government could not make a separate peace, if it were a member of such a Union? No; nor could it surrender its fleet. There would be no “British Fleet,” only a “Union Fleet,’’ just as there is no “New York Fleet” or “California Pleet’’ in our own Union. 17. Would American boys have to go to war if Japan attacked Australia? Yes; just as Ganadian and English boys would ‘have to go to war if Japan attacked California and boys from Maine now have to fight for the defense of Arizona. 18. What powers would thé Federal Union have other than war and peace? That would be up to the organizing Congress to peoples of all participating states to ratify. It is proposed that the Union government have the power to make every citizen of every participating nation a citizen of the Union; power to establish a uniform currency for the whole Uniproose and the on;-power to regulatecommerce between the several states; and, of course, power to defend the. Union or any part of it. Si 19. Wouldn’t that mean _ free trade between the _ constituent states? Precisely; just as we. have free trade between our 48 states now. 20. Would not that harm our industries and reduce our standards of living? It would do just the opposite. The standards of living of millions of consumers would rise from the expansion of markets and lower consumer prices for mass-produced goods, Transportation industries would revive and with them the capital goods industries behind them. Industrial unemployment would tend to disappear. Agricultural products of Union nations would have preference in Union markets. Consider what you have gained by being a part of the American Union, and you can imagine how much more you would gain by being a citizen of the larger Federal Union of Democracies. 21. What would those gains be for you as an individual citizen? Greater security from war in the long run. Greater protection from the worst depression’ the world has yet seen, which is bound to follow the present war. Safety from dictatorship. New frontiers of all kinds; wider opportunities for business and jobs; freedom to travel, work or seek work or to live and play in any part of an immensely greater area.

Surely; but only those who already have to be helred or would not be competent to meet the competition in the Union, United States Senators would lose relative importance in the scheme of things, unless they were big enough to be elected to the Greater Senate of the Union. The biggest of them would gain a share in governing a third of the world. ‘Manufacturers who are not competent to run their business and sell even to their own people without tariff protection would squawk, but the general run of citnzens would gain. 238.
